   :-) I was just making a cock-eyed comment about Mel's typing "Why did it   
   show indications of sanity?" rather than what was presumably meant, i.e.   
   "Why? Did it show indications of sanity?"   
      
   This is the kind of cheap and often worthless point I sometimes find   
   myself making, faced with correspondents who've deployed cheap   
   thought-free sarcasm ;-)

   banana     "The thing I hate about you, Rowntree, is the way you   
               give Coca-Cola to your scum, and your best teddy-bear to   
               Oxfam, and expect us to lick your frigid fingers for the   
               rest of your frigid life." (Mick Travis, 'If...', 1968)
